Post subject:  Wikipedia corrigendum

If anybody knows how how to edit Wikipedia, could they fix an error on this page?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hull_Derby

It says Hull won the first derby in 1902, 10-5. In fact, as mentioned in the commentary today, the first Hull derby (at first team level) was in 1899 and Rovers won 8-2 at Craven Street. You can cite The Robins by Roger Pugh, p45-46. Failing that, I’ll have a go myself but don’t blame me if you get a 404 error message the next time you have to remind yourself what the difference is between currants, raisins and sultanas.

On a similar note, if anybody at the club sees this - please could you update the website Honours and Records page to make the biggest score against 6-84 vs Wigan in 2013 and include winning the Championship in 2017?

(And, yes, I am this boring and pedantic in real life).

I really didn't need reminding about the 6-84 game, it was bad enough witnessing it at the time.
We kick off, Wigan score.
We kick off, Wigan score.
We kick off, Wigan score.
Repeat for all eternity.
In fact I'd add it as personal Dante's circle.
Once accidentally went to a relatives of his vineyard, a very pleasant afternoon.

Somebody fixed Wikipedia! We may only ever know their IPN address, but we owe this quiet hero a debt of gratitude.
